OPERATION _________________________________
Preparation
Caution:
7
First time use: Run the appliance at least 4
times without adding coffee.
7
Please follow the steps 1 - 2 and 8 - 13 in the
“Brewing Coffee” section.
1 Remove all packaging and stickers and dis-
pose of them according to applicable legal
regulations.
2 Before using the appliance for first time, clean
all parts which come into contact with water
carefully. Please see full details in the “Cleaning and Care” section.
3 Make sure that the appliance is placed in an
upright position and on a stable, flat, clean,
dry, and non-slip surface.
Brewing Coffee
1 Open the water tank cover A and use the
glass jug G to fill the water tank E with the
required amount of water, but do not fill past
the “max” mark. The brewed amount of coffee
will be 10 % less than the filled water, because
it is absorbed by the coffee grounds and the filter. The scale on the glass jug is marked in coffee cups, e.g. 4 = 4 cups. For the good coffee
taste it is suggested to operate the appliance
with at least 4 cups coffee serving.
Note
7
Use only clean, cold, and fresh drinking
water.
2 Close the water tank cover A.
3 Press the release button B for swivel filter
holder.
4 Open the swivel filter holder C by swinging it
out to the left.
5 Take a suitable paper filter (1 x 4) and insert
the paper filter into the swivel filter C.
Note
7
Use only one paper filter at each time. Make
sure that the paper filter does not bend or
fold.
6 Fill the filter with the desired amount of ground
coffee. To do this, you may use the supplied
measuring spoon J.
7 Close the swivel filter holder C until it clicks,
which insures that it is closed accurately.
8 Place the glass jug G on the warming plate H.
Caution:
7
If the swivel filter holder C is not closed or
the glass jug G is not placed accurately, the
drip - stop function will not function properly.
It could cause hot water or hot coffee to overflow.
9 Connect the plug to the wall socket.
10 Turn the appliance on, by setting the On/Off
switch I to the “ON” position.
– The On/Off switch I illuminates and the
brewing process begins.
Notes
7
The brewing process can be stopped at any
time by setting the On/Off switch I to the
“OFF” position.
7
The appliance is equipped with a drip-stop F
located underneath the swivel filter holder C
and enables you to briefly remove the glass
jug G to pour coffee before the water has
finished running through the machine.
Caution
7
Make sure to place the glass jug G on the
warming plate H quickly (max. 30 seconds).
Otherwise the brewed coffee from the filter
could overflow. If you want to use the glass
jug for more than 30 seconds, switch off the
appliance.
16
ENGLISH
OPERATION _________________________________
7
Never open the swivel filter holder C during the brewing process, even if no water is
draining from the filter. Extremely hot water
or coffee can spill out from the swivel filter
holder and cause injury. If water or coffee
is not draining from the swivel filter holder,
immediately unplug the appliance and wait
10 minutes before opening and checking the
swivel filter holder.
7
When the brewing process ends and the
water level indicator with MAX marking D is
empty, there will still be hot liquid in the swivel
filter holder C. Wait a few minutes for the rest
of the liquid to drip into the glass jug G.
11 Remove the glass jug G from the warming
plate H, as soon as the brewing process has
finished and the glass jug G is filled. The
coffee is ready for use.
12 To turn the appliance off, set the On/Off
switch I to the “OFF” position.
– On/Off switch I and appliance turns off.
13 Disconnect the appliance from the wall
socket.
Note
7
If you want to continue the brewing process,
repeat the procedure from 1 to 13. Let the
appliance cool down at least 15 minutes between each brewing process.
Hints and Tips
7
Use softened or filtered water to prevent lime
build-up.
7
Store unused coffee in a cool, dry place. After
opening a package of coffee, reseal it tightly
to maintain its freshness.
7
Do not reuse the coffee sediment in the filter
since this will reduce the flavour.
7
Reheating coffee is not recommended as
coffee is at its peak flavour immediately after
brewing.

Descaling the appliance
Descaling extends the life of your appliance.
Descale your coffee machine at least 4 times per
year. The period depends on the water hardness
in your area. The harder the water is, the more
often the appliance has to be descaled.
1 Purchase a suitable descaler from a speciality
store. Please ask naming the device.
2 Prior to commencing the descaling process,
thoroughly read the manufacturer’s package
insert for the descaler. Should the manufacturer’s instructions differ from the ones
listed below, then follow the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Note
7
You can also use white vinegar and lemon
juice instead of a commercially available
descaler.
3 Fill the water tank to the MAX marking and
add descaler.
Mixing ratio: 4 parts water to 1 part descaler.
4 Turn the appliance ON and allow approxi-
mately one large coffee cup to run through the
appliance.
5 Turn the appliance off.
6 Let the mixture soak for about 15 minutes.
7 Repeat steps 4 – 6.
8 Now turn the appliance on and let the entire
mixture run through.
9 Fill the water tank with cold, fresh drinking
water and run all the water through.
10 Repeat step 9 four times.
11 Now you may brew coffee again.
